Counter-tour: Bernard Tschumi’s Cut

Event, in English, Main galleries, 31 January 2019, 6:30pm

Bernard Tschumi presents an alternative reading of the exhibition Architecture Itself and Other Postmodernist Myths, curated by Sylvia Lavin, through a counter-tour.

Counter-tours propose critical, subversive, and alternative visions of an exhibition through encounters with the perspectives of special guests who are equipped with a projector to digitally add objects and a black cloth to remove existing objects from the galleries.

Bernard Tschumi is an architect and theorist, known for his “Advertisements for Architecture” (1976-1977), Parc de La Villette in Paris (1983), Acropolis Museum in Athens (2006), and the Paperless Studios, an experiment conducted at Columbia GSAPP while he was Dean from 1988 to 2003.
